Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 500ºF (260ºC).
- Make the crust: In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave the hash browns on high power for 5-6 minutes, until you can separate the shredded potato pieces with your fingers but they still hold their shape.
- Transfer the shredded potatoes to a clean dish towel set over a medium bowl. Wring the towel to squeeze any excess liquid from the potatoes.
- Add the drained potatoes to a large bowl with the eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and oregano and stir until everything is well incorporated. The mixture should look like mashed potatoes, with a few shredded potato pieces remaining.
- Line a 12-inch (30 cm) round pizza pan with parchment paper. Transfer the potato mixture to the pan and shape it into a crust, pressing down so that it’s an even thickness with a lip around the outer edge. Brush the entire crust with olive oil.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes, until the crust is beginning to brown and is firm to the touch. Remove from the oven.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 325ºF (160ºC).
- Add the toppings: Scatter the Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the crust. Top with the breakfast sausage. Carefully add the eggs, spacing evenly around the pizza. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
- Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes, until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still a bit runny.
- Top with the scallions and hot sauce, if using, then slice into wedges.
- Enjoy!
